Surnames: DAVIES, PERKINS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HNR.2ACEB/1369.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Hmmm, no, I guess not. It was too good to be true...all I was thinking was "oh, good, a Samuel Davies with a connection to Altrincham, and his father's name is John!" :) I'm looking for a Samuel Davies who would have a connection to Altrincham either by birth or by sibling's birth...parents' names John & Elizabeth Davies. John was a tailor. Samuel was a jeweller & watch repairman in Preston later on (probably in and around 1930's) and then moved to Rawtenstall...eventually married a "Fallon" lass. thanks anyways, carrie
